Do you want to test and develop software better?
When you want to improve, you need someone experienced working directly with your teams. I provide hands-on, work based consultancy, to help you take realistic actions and improve your situation.
I don't come pre-armed with a 'Head Office Solution', and write a report to sell you more consultancy.
I use my experience to work with you quickly, to solve your unique problems and help you make the right decisions.

I Can Help You Improve Your Testing
Start Automating Your Applications
If you're learning from your mistakes, you're doing it the hard way. Learn from my experience and be up and running quickly.
Improve Your Existing Automated Approach
If you've come quite far already, you'll need experience to advance faster or resolve issues e.g intermittent failures, or a hard to maintain code base.
Code Reviews and Recommendations
Ongoing support as you automate. I review your code changes, with feedback to recommend improvements.
Learning how to test in Agile? I can help you make your test approach work with your chosen tools and adopt Exploratory and Technical Testing.
If you only test from requirements, you're missing a whole set of risks. We can improve your technical testing and risk analysis skills.
Do What You've Never Done Before
Step back to look at your process. You'll be constrained by your environment. I bring a fresh set of eyes and experience.
Want to know what to improve? And fast? Let's review what you do, then perform the on-site work to make those priority changes and test better.
Work with you on-site. Mentoring and pairing. Improving every step of the way. Sharing experience and doing what it takes to make your testing better.
Learn At Your Own Pace with these Online Training Courses
You can train with me online rather than waiting for a public training course or conference. The courses have received amazing reviews and you can start learning immediately and continue at your own speed. I deal with any technical queries in the discussion forums of the course.
Read these Books to Improve your Testing Skills
If you would rather learn from reading a book then you're in luck. I have distilled my experience into several books, packed with exercises and examples to help you improve your automation skills and increase your technical flexibility.
